Default Simple probability problem

On page 126, first paragraph of Harrington On Hold'em Vol1:

1. Higher pair versus lower pair. The higher pair is about 82% to win, or about a 4.5:1 favorite.

This is probably just my non-math brain kicking in and I've never commited any of this to memory since I've not been a no-limit player. But...can this be right? 100/4.5 =22.2 that's 77.8%. Yes?
